Shortly before "Black Friday", there is great anger at the Saturn and Media Markt consumer electronics stores.
Many followers look into the tube because of delays.
Shortly after the release of the new
PlayStation 5
from Sony, many fans have to be put off.
Disappointed customers go
hard
with the consumer electronics stores
Media Markt
and
Saturn
.
Despite
pre-orders
, fans have to
wait for
their
console
- and are apparently inadequately put off.
Is the new marvel still available this year?
When
"Black Friday"
unlikely.
Munich - Seven years after the release of its predecessor, the
Sony PlayStation 5 is
available.
The new console promises game fans shorter loading times, better optics and smoother gameplay.
At the
moment
, however, many supporters are still waiting in vain for the
delivery of
their already ordered
PS5
.
Black Friday: Many fans are waiting for delivery - Media Markt and Saturn are fighting back
The demand for the
fifth generation from
the Japanese manufacturer Sony seems extremely high - and Germany's
consumer
electronics stores are having problems keeping up with deliveries.
The companies
Media Markt
and
Saturn
, which
belong together, are facing
massive allegations on the Internet because many of the numerous pre-orders could not yet be fulfilled.
It was announced last week that there would be delays.
In the meantime, however, it is clear that it can take until December before the goods will reach some customers.
Another thing that annoys the nation's gamblers: That they are apparently insufficiently informed about when they can
expect
the delivery of their new
PlayStation 5
.
So a case of failed corporate communication?
Saturn and Media Markt
responded to the increasing pressure
with a post on Facebook
.
Because thousands of console pre-orderers are still waiting for the long-awaited delivery - the hashtag
# WoBleibtMeinePS5 is
one of the most searched terms
in Twitter trends
.
Those people who have already ordered a PS5 are to be supplied successively over the next few days and weeks.
According to
Gameswirtschaft.de, anyone
who wants to buy
the
popular console
first and
has not yet placed an order
has a
bad chance of being able to gamble in 2020:
New PS5 from Sony: Saturn and Media Markt are forced to comment before Black Friday
Because
a real
shit storm has
broken in
since the official release of the PS5 via Saturn and
Media Markt
, the
dealers belonging
to
Media-Saturn-Holding
felt compelled to make the following statement: “Unfortunately, when the PS5 went on sale, we weren't able to provide everyone with a console directly.
But regardless of whether by delivery or for self-collection, we do our best to ensure that everyone gets their console as soon as possible.
The demand is very high and we are in close contact with the manufacturer in
order
to carry out
all
pre-orders
as quickly as possible
.
We want the console for all hobby gamers, for all pro gamers, for all of you. "
Hundreds of angry comments
have now
accumulated
under the post
.
Users express their displeasure about the fact that a lot of money was transferred in advance without having received anything in return: “I'm pleased that you've been able to do business with our money for a few months and at the same time screw us up,” someone writes.
“As a long-standing customer of Saturn and Mediamarkt, I am immensely disappointed that customers are treated this way and that all service is missing.
You don't get any information about stocks, dispatched deliveries or delivery dates, ”explains another.
However, there are also
opposing positions
: Are there
no major problems,
especially in times of
Corona
?
A Facebook user writes: “Sometimes it's pretty embarrassing how some people behave here.
Is there nothing more important at the moment than getting upset about getting a “game console” a little later ???
It's really sad what luxury problems some have to struggle with here. "
Buy a PlayStation 5 on Black Friday?
Now supporters have to be very strong
New
PlayStation 5 orders
are apparently no longer possible this year.
Only large mail-order companies, chains and renowned specialist dealers are still
supplied
with the
PS5
by Sony
.
Smaller, unknown providers are therefore dubious offers.
"Absolutely every console is sold," said
Sony Interactive Entertainment
.
At least those who have already pre-ordered a console by mid-November are said to have a good chance of being able to
indulge in
gaming with the new
PlayStation
at Christmas
time.
For the upcoming
"Black Friday" on November 27th, however
, the current development with regard to the
Sony PS5 means
: At least in Germany, no bargains can be made with the new console.
On the contrary: There are apparently various offers circulating on eBay as to how the new game console is priced above the current new price. We are talking about amounts just under the thousand euro limit ... Here you can find out what the PlayStation 5 usually costs. On the verge of the release of the PS5, it is not only Germany's consumer electronics stores that have problems. The US giant Amazon is also having difficulties with delivery.
